Many children, many blessings: Stealing the offspring of powerful figures to cultivate immortality.

"Sure, I'll help you look for it."

Jiang Yining's voice came from the soft couch, low and hoarse, as if she had just woken up.

She opened her eyes and saw that Gu Qinghan was still sitting in the same position as all night, and her brows furrowed.

"Your face is even paler than when Sanbao was poisoned. Go and rest."

Gu Qinghan opened her mouth as if to say something.

"Ning'er, I..."

"obedient."

Two words shut him down, leaving him with no further follow-up.

The sound of a wheelchair rolling over jade bricks came from outside the hall. Mo Xie appeared at the door, a mechanical arm holding the jade plate with mysterious patterns.

"Mistress, the double restrictions within the remnant dust have been successfully separated, a significant breakthrough. Please proceed to the array chamber."

Jiang Yining rolled off the bed and gathered her long hair that had fallen over her shoulders.

As she passed by Gu Qinghan, her fingertips brushed against his shoulder bone.

"Two hours is enough time for you to close your eyes for a while."

She didn't turn around.

The purple and gold skirt disappeared at the end of the corridor. Gu Qinghan lowered her eyes, her fingers tracing the hilt of the broken sword before she finally stood up, supporting herself on her knees.

The spiritual light in the array room flickered.

Moye suspended the jade plate above the array platform, and two bright and dim points of light appeared on the surface of the plate, connected by a thin, dark gold line.

"Please look, Madam."

The robotic arm magnified the dark gold lines several times in mid-air.

"Tianji Remnant Market and Qingqiu Ancient Moon share the same high-dimensional law chain. If one of them is forcibly opened, the backlash from the broken chain will permanently erase the other coordinate."

"So they have to be turned on at the same time."

Jiang Yining walked half a circle around the array platform, her fingertip pointing to her chin.

"When both ends are activated simultaneously, the chain naturally becomes ineffective."

"Exactly."

Data streams whirred in Mo Xie's mechanical eyes.

"I have exhausted all the archives in the Protoss array library, but I have not yet found one that can trigger two coordinates with different attributes simultaneously..."

The conversation was interrupted by the sound of footsteps.

The door to the array room was pushed open from the outside, and a scorching heat rushed in first.

Feng Liuyun strode in, a few pieces of charred paper still hanging on his crimson robe, and in his hands he held an old scroll with a reddish-gold luster.

Feng Liuyun: "Ning'er, this young master has searched through the Phoenix Clan's secret vault, which has been untouched for three hundred years, and found some good stuff."

He spread the scroll out on the array platform, and the crimson gold phoenix feather pattern automatically unfolded, revealing dense ancient array patterns arranged within it.

"The Twin Formation of Deception. An ancient formation specifically designed by the Phoenix Clan ancestors to counter twin restrictions."

Jiang Yining's gaze fell on the scroll, quickly scanning the patterns and nodes.

Mo Xie extended a scanning beam, and the data jumped in mid-air for more than ten breaths before turning completely green.

Moye: (◉_◉)

"The array principle has been verified. The Dual Array of Breaking Illusions can activate two coordinates simultaneously without triggering the mutual destruction restriction."

He paused, then added in a mechanical voice.

"However, the activation conditions are that the Nirvana True Fire is the guiding source and the semi-saint level divine consciousness is the fixed point."

Feng Liuyun closed her folding fan and looked at Jiang Yining with a smile in her peach blossom eyes.

"What a coincidence! I have the Nirvana True Fire, and you have the Half-Saint level Divine Sense. If we join forces on this platform, we can stabilize the coordinates on the spot."

Jiang Yining looked up at him.

"And the price?"

"Ning'er, you still want to negotiate a price with me?"

Feng Liuyun smiled and tapped his chest with his folding fan.

"Using phoenix blood as ink, I will hand-draw the entire array pattern. I must draw out the essence of my heart and soul to create this array."

It's easy to say, but for the Phoenix Clan, their lifeblood is second only to the origin of Nirvana.

Jiang Yining didn't reply, but just looked at him quietly.

There was no sign of rejection in his gaze.

Feng Liuyun didn't waste any more words. He raised his right middle finger, put it between his teeth, and bit down hard.

A drop of crimson-gold blood seeped from the wound, carrying a scorching heat and a strong aura of the Phoenix Clan bloodline, trembling and condensing into a single drop under the candlelight.

He held his blood-dripping fingertip half an inch to Jiang Yining's lips, his peach blossom eyes slightly narrowed.

"My life's work is not for you to touch."

Feng Liuyun: (⸝ᵕᴗᵕ⸝)

The golden blood droplet trembled precariously, just a finger's width away from her lower lip.

Jiang Yining didn't even raise an eyebrow.

She raised her hand, her five fingers gripping Feng Liuyun's wrist, and pressed down gently, pulling the mischievous hand away from her face.

"What's with that expression? You're supposed to be the young master of the Phoenix Clan, why do you have to pose like that just to donate blood?"

Feng Liuyun: (´°̥̥̥ω°̥̥̥`)

"Ning'er, you have such a sharp tongue..."

Jiang Yining ignored him.

She held his wrist firmly with her left hand, and dipped the pad of her right hand in the drop of crimson blood, beginning to trace the array patterns along the grooves on the array platform.

With each stroke of the brush, a sliver of light illuminated the array platform.

As fingertips trace the arc, phoenix blood enters the groove, and ancient patterns are gradually illuminated.

Feng Liuyun looked down at her fingertips as she pressed them against the wound on her middle finger, repeatedly dabbing at the flowing blood.

Her fingers were icy cold, while his fingertips were burning hot.

Each time she dipped her fingertip, it would glide across his wound, the sensation both itchy and numb, shooting from his fingertips to his heart, and then exploding from his heart to his ears.

"you……"

Feng Liuyun's throat bobbed, his voice dry and hoarse.

"Ning'er, be gentle..."

"You talk too much nonsense."

Jiang Yining didn't turn her head; her attention was entirely focused on the direction of the array patterns.

Her fingertips brushed against his wound again, this time lingering for a moment longer.

It was only for a moment.

Feng Liuyun's breath hitched, and her heart skipped a beat.

Feng Liuyun: (ꈍ ꒳ ꈍ)

He stared at Jiang Yining's drooping eyelashes, his Adam's apple bobbing twice, but he didn't dare to utter a sound.

Mo Xie silently recorded the progress of the array patterns, his mechanical eyes sweeping over Feng Liuyun's flushed ears before silently turning back.

After a cup of tea, the double rows of array patterns on the array platform were filled with phoenix blood.

As Jiang Yining finished the final arc, her fingertip slowly slid down from Feng Liuyun's fingertip.

His finger chased half an inch, only to catch a handful of air.

"Moye, activate the formation."

Jiang Yining turned around, flipped her palm, and her chaotic divine consciousness at the semi-saint realm transformed into a purple-gold anchor point and entered the core of the formation.

Feng Liuyun composed himself and followed, the Nirvana True Fire surging from his palm and flowing into the array patterns.

Crimson gold and purple gold intertwined and rose on the array platform, tearing open two stable light gates in the void.

The outline of a dilapidated building faintly appeared inside the light gate on the left, accompanied by the crisp sound of abacus beads falling.

A cold moon hung high in the light gate on the right, with a very faint fox cry piercing through it.

"Coordinates locked in both directions successfully; mutual destruction restriction not triggered."

Moye's stats are all green.

"Within three days, the coordinates will stabilize, and the mistress can depart at any time."

Jiang Yining withdrew her divine sense and turned to look at Feng Liuyun beside her, whose face was pale but who was still forcing a smile.

A lot of my vital essence has been released, and even the color of my lips has faded.

"Can you still stand?"

"Stand firm, stand firm."

Feng Liuyun tried to sound tough, but took a half-step forward and whispered in her ear.

"You still owe me a treat, Ning'er."

His peach blossom eyes were half-closed, his gaze fixed on the corner of her lips.

"You touched me so gently for so long, you should at least make it up to me, right?"

Jiang Yining didn't even look at him.

He raised his index finger and flicked his forehead with just the right amount of pressure.

Feng Liuyun: (ꐦ≖ ‸ ≖)

The impact sent him flying back three feet, and he staggered two steps before regaining his balance.

"What's so beautiful about it? Organize all the information in the Phoenix Clan's secret vault related to the Heavenly Mystery Remnant Market and the Ancient Moon of Qingqiu, and hand it over to me within three hours."

She turned and walked towards the door.

I paused for a moment as I passed the doorway.

Feng Liuyun covered his forehead and looked up, just in time to see the very faint curve on her profile.

He stood there, frozen, his finger hovering over the red mark on his forehead, unable to catch his breath for a long time.

"Young Master Feng, you have three hours. Please hurry."
